Ski Swap

Below is a link to information for this weekends MYSL ski swap.  For those that have mentioned that want to volunteer, please be to Northern Star Council Base Camp by 7:00am so you can help with set up as well as other needs they may have.  For those that are looking for equipment, please let me know what you would like by Friday afternoon so I and those helping can be looking for those items.  But, this is a good location and opportunity to get some of the items needed for the upcoming season.  If you have any questions, please let me know,
Thanks

Thursday and Friday Practices

We have made some changes for practice for the next two days, in which we discussed with the skiers.

For Thursday, we are going to have everyone meet after school as normal, but for those that have their own skis, we are going to have them head to Elm Creek at some point to get on snow. Our permits have been ordered but are not in yet, so they will have to pay for a pass.  For everyone else, we will be going in-depth with their technique for each skate and classics since the snow we received today eliminated a chance to be on wheels.  We will also be handing out skis after practice so we know if we need to pick any up at the ski swap on Saturday (more details on this tomorrow.)

For Friday, due to the early release from school for the football game and the number of team members heading to the game, we will not have practice. For those that want a workout for the day, we will give them ideas.

If there are any questions, please let me know.

Thanks

Team Jackets

Below is a link to order the team jackets.  The cost this year is $110 and you can place the order and pay online.  Right now we have the order by date as Tuesday, Nov. 19, but we can bump that out if people need more time.  Right now we have that date so we would be able to get the jackets by Christmas.  If we wait a week we will get them right after Christmas, hopefully before we go to camp.  If there are any questions, please let me know,
Thanks

Parent Meeting

The Parent Meeting for the 2019-2020 Nordic Ski Team will be on Monday, November 18 at 6:00pm.  This meeting will be held in Room 004, which is in the basement of the high school.  We will cover the team handbook, team jackets and other clothing orders, the Winter Camp trip, the Booster Club and Fundraising, and any questions that any of you may have (i.e. equipment/ski’s).  We will also have Jan Guenther from Gear West to discuss some of the items that they sell and the importance of these items to have a positive experience this season.

If you have any questions prior to this, please let me know.  You may contact myself and I will get back to you as soon as I can.

Thanks
